Exactly the reason why I use https://choosy.app to always redirect everything Google Cloud to Chrome, but everything else to Firefox.

That way if I click on some random GCP link in Slack it opens the link in Chrome, but everything else stays in Firefox. I don't need ad blocking for GCP so that works fine.

Sucks, but better than using Chrome full time.

Other Chromium-based browsers don’t work?

That would at least save you from stuff like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17942252.

I use BigQuery studio often in Firefox and haven’t noticed anything being worse than Chrome. What problems do you see?

Yes; the movie where running genuine Microsoft Windows is damn near a requirement if you want to interact with Windows applications.

Using Firefox and whatever for the Google cloud is kinda like running Windos applications in Wine or ReactOS.
